Answer:
23.04 m
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the initial velocity of the pellet. This can be obtained as follow:
Height (h) of cliff = 14.7 m
Final velocity (v) = 27.2 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Initial velocity (u) =?
v² = u² + 2gh
27.2² = u² + (2 × 9.8 × 14.7)
739.84 = u² + 288.12
Collect like terms
u² = 739.84 – 288.12
u² = 451.72
Take the square root of both side
u = √451.72
u = 21.25 m/s
Thus, the initial velocity of the pellet is 21.25 m/s.
Finally, we shall determine the maximum height to which the pellet would have gone assuming the gun was fired straight upward. This can be obtained as follow:
Initial velocity (u) = 21.25 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (at maximum height)
Maximum height (h) =?
v² = u² – 2gh (since the pellet is going against gravity.
0² = 21.25² – (2 × 9.8 × h)
0 = 451.5625 – 19.6h
Collect like terms
0 – 451.5625 = –19.6h
–451.5625 = –19.6h
Divide both side by –19.6
h = –451.5625 / –19.6
h = 23.04 m
Therefore, the pellet will reach a maximum height of 23.04 m above the cliff.

A 3" diameter germanium wafer that is 0.020" thick at 300K has 1.015 x 10^17 As atoms added to it. What is the resistivity of the wafer? Germanium has 4.42 x10^22 atoms/cc, electron and hole mobilities are 3900 and 1900 cm^2/(V*s). What is the resistivity of the Ge in ohm*microns?
Answer:
0.546 ohm / μm
Explanation:
Given that :
N = 1.015 * 10^17
Electron mobility, u = 3900
Hole mobility, h = 1900
Ng = 4.42 x10^22
q = 1.6*10^-19
Resistivity = 1/qNu
Resistivsity (R) = 1/(1.6*10^-19 * 1.015 * 10^17 * 3900)
= 0.01578880889 ohm /cm
Resistivity of germanium :
R = 1 / 2q * sqrt(Ng) * sqrt(u*h)
R = 1 / 2 * 1.6*10^-19 * sqrt(4.42 x10^22) * sqrt(3900*1900)
R = 1 /0.0001831
R = 5461.4964 ohm /cm
5461.4964 / 10000
0.546 ohm / μm

Answer:
-6,329.5Joules
Explanation:
Complete question:
Sally applies a horizontal force of 462N with a rope to drag a wooden crate across a floor with a constant speed the rope tied to the crate is pulled at an angle of 56.0degree and sally moves the crate 24.5m. What work is done by the floor through the force of friction between the floor and crate.
Work done = Fd cos theta
F is the horizontal force
d is the distance covered
theta angle of inclination
Substituting into the formula
Workdone = 462(24.5)cos 56
Workdone = 11,319(0.5592)
Workdone = 6,329.5Joules
Hence the workdone by sally is 6,329.5Joules
The work done by friction will be opposite the work done by sally, hence work done by the floor through force of friction between the floor and the crate is -6,329.5Joules
The moon accelerates because it is
A. in a vacuum in space.
B. continuously changing direction.
C. a very large sphere.
D. constantly changing its shape.
Answer:
the Answer is b
Explanation:
because the moon usually orbits around our solar system
As the moon continuously changing direction, it accelerates.
Option B. is correct.
Define acceleration.The rate at which an object's velocity changes with respect to time is called acceleration. Accelerations are measured in terms of vectors. The orientation of the net force acting on an object determines the orientation of its acceleration.
The Moon is kept in orbit around us by the gravity of the Earth. It constantly shifting the Moon's velocity direction. This means that, despite its constant speed, gravity causes the Moon to accelerate all the time.
So, as the moon continuously changing direction, it accelerates.
Option B. is correct.

You are working as a letter sorter in a U.S. Post Office. Postal regulations require that employees' footwear must have a minimum coefficient of static friction of 0.5 on a specified tile surface. You are wearing athletic shoes for which you do not know the coefficient of static friction. In order to determine the coefficient, you imagine that there is an emergency and start running across the room. You have a coworker time you, and find that you can begin at rest and move 4.38 m in 1.21 s. If you try to move faster than this, your feet slip. Assuming your acceleration is constant, does your footwear qualify for the postal regulation?
Answer:
μ = 0.66, therefore if it compiesy with the regulations
Explanation:
Let's solve this exercise in part, let's start by finding with kinematics the acceleration of man
y = v₀ t + ½ a t²
as it starts from rest the initial velocity is zero
y = ½ a t²
a = [tex]\frac{2y}{t^2}[/tex]
a =\frac{2 \ 4.38}{1.21^2}
a = 6.46 m / s²
Now let's use Newton's second law,
Axis y
N- W = 0
N = W
N = m g
X axis
on this axis the man exerts a backward force and by the law of action and reaction the floor exerts a forward force of the same magnitude, this forward force is the friction force.
fr = m a
the friction force has an expression
fr = my N
let's substitute
μ mg = m a
μ = a / g
let's calculate
μ = 6.46 / 9.8
μ = 0.66
therefore if you comply with the regulations

A 97.1 kg horizontal circular platform rotates freely with no friction about its center at an initial angular velocity of 1.63 rad/s . A monkey drops a 8.97 kg bunch of bananas vertically onto the platform. They hit the platform at 45 of its radius from the center, adhere to it there, and continue to rotate with it. Then the monkey, with a mass of 22.1 kg , drops vertically to the edge of the platform, grasps it, and continues to rotate with the platform. Find the angular velocity of the platform with its load. Model the platform as a disk of radius 1.73 m .
Answer:
the final angular velocity of the platform with its load is 1.0356 rad/s
Explanation:
Given that;
mass of circular platform m = 97.1 kg
Initial angular velocity of platform ω₀ = 1.63 rad/s
mass of banana [tex]m_{b}[/tex] = 8.97 kg
at distance r = 4/5 { radius of platform }
mass of monkey [tex]m_{m}[/tex] = 22.1 kg
at edge = R
R = 1.73 m
now since there is No external Torque
Angular momentum will be conserved, so;
mR²/2 × ω₀ = [ mR²/2 + [tex]m_{b}[/tex] ([tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] R)² + [tex]m_{m}[/tex]R² ]w
m/2 × ω₀ = [ m/2 + [tex]m_{b}[/tex] ([tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] )² + [tex]m_{m}[/tex] ]w
we substitute
w = 97.1/2 × 1.63 / ( 97.1/2 + 8.97(16/25) + 22.1
w = 48.55 × [ 1.63 / ( 48.55 + 5.7408 + 22.1 )
w = 48.55 × [ 1.63 / ( 76.3908 ) ]
w = 48.55 × 0.02133
w = 1.0356 rad/s
Therefore; the final angular velocity of the platform with its load is 1.0356 rad/s
Two loudspeakers are about 10 mm apart in the front of a large classroom. If either speaker plays a pure tone at a single frequency of 400 HzHz, the loudness seems pretty even as you wander around the room, and gradually decreases in volume as you move farther from the speaker. If both speakers then play the same tone together, what do you hear as you wander around the room
Answer:
I hear points of low volume sound and points of high volume of sound.
Explanation:
This is because, since the two sources of sound have the same frequency and are separated by a distance, d = 10 mm, there would be successive points of constructive and destructive interference.
Since their frequencies are similar, we should have beats of high and low frequency.
So, at points of low frequency, the amplitude of the wave is smallest and there is destructive interference. The frequency at this point is the difference between the frequencies from both speakers. Since the frequency from both speakers is 400 Hz, we have, f - f' = 400 Hz - 400 Hz = 0 Hz. So, the volume of the sound is low(zero) at these points.
Also, at points of high frequency, the amplitude of the wave is highest and there is constructive interference. The frequency at this point is the sum between the frequencies from both speakers. Since the frequency from both speakers is 400 Hz, we have, (f + f') = 400 Hz + 400 Hz = 800 Hz. So, the volume of the sound is high at these points.
So, as you wander around the room, I should hear points of high and low sound across the room.

Desperado, a roller coaster built in Nevada, has a mass of 800 kg. It also has a vertical drop of 225 feet down the first hill. The roller coaster is designed so that the speed of the cars at the end of this drop is 80 mi/h. Assume the cars are at rest at the start of the drop. How much work is done by friction on the car as it drops down the hill
Answer:
the work done by friction on the car is 524,582 J.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the roller coaster, m = 800 kg
distance moved by the coaster, d = 225 ft = 68.58 m
final velocity of the coaster, v = 80 mi/h = 35.76 m/s
The time taken for the coaster to drop down the hill is calculated as;
[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\ \times \ 68.58}{9.8} } \\\\t = 3.74 \ s[/tex]
The work done by friction on the car is calculated as;
[tex]W =F\ \times \ d = \frac{mv}{t} \times \ d\\\\W = \frac{800 \ \times \ 35.76 }{3.74} \times \ 68.58\\\\W = 524,582 \ J[/tex]
Therefore, the work done by friction on the car is 524,582 J.

.1 An 8-ft 3 tank contains air at an initial temperature of 808F and initial pressure of 100 lbf/in. 2 The tank develops a small hole, and air leaks from the tank at a constant rate of 0.03 lb/s for 90 s until the pressure of the air remaining in the tank is 30 lbf/in. 2 Employing the ideal gas model, determine the final temperature, in 8F, of the air remaining in the tank
Correct temperature is 80°F
Answer:
T_f = 38.83°F
Explanation:
We are given;
Volume; V = 8 ft³
Initial Pressure; P_i = 100 lbf/in² = 100 × 12² lbf/ft²
Initial temperature; T_i = 80°F = 539.67 °R
Time for outlet flow; t_o = 90 s
Mass flow rate at outlet; m'_o = 0.03 lb/s
Final pressure; P_f = 30 lbf/in² = 30 × 12² lbf/ft²
Now, from ideal gas equation,
Pv = RT
Where v is initial specific volume
R is ideal gas constant = 53.33 ft.lbf/°R
Thus;
v = RT/P
v_i = 53.33 × 539.67/(100 × 12²)
v_i = 2 ft³/lb
Formula for initial mass is;
m_i = V/v_i
m_i = 8/2
m_i = 4 lb
Now change in mass is given as;
Δm = m'_o × t_o
Δm = 0.03 × 90
Δm = 2.7 lb
Now,
m_f = m_i - Δm
Thus; m_f = 4 - 2.7
m_f = 1.3 lb
Similarly in above;
v_f = V/m_f
v_f = 8/1.3
v_f = 6.154 ft³/lb
Again;
Pv = RT
Thus;
T_f = P_f•v_f/R
T_f = (30 × 12² × 6.154)/53.33
T_f = 498.5°R
Converting to °F gives;
T_f = 38.83°F
The final temperature, in °F, of the air remaining in the tank is 38.83°F
It is given that volume V = 8 ft³
Initial Pressure Pi = 100 lbf/in² = 100 × 12² lbf/ft²
Initial temperature Ti = 80°F = 539.67 °R
Time for outlet flow; to = 90 s
Mass flow rate at outlet; m'o = 0.03 lb/s
Final pressure; Pf = 30 lbf/in² = 30 × 12² lbf/ft²
Now, from ideal gas equation,
Pv = RT
where v is initial volume, R is ideal gas constant = 53.33 ft.lbf/°R
[tex]v = RT/P\\ \\ v_i = 53.33 *539.67/(100*12^2)\\ \\ v_i = 2 ft^3/lb [/tex]
The initial mass is;
[tex]m_i = V/v_i\\ \\ m_i = 8/2\\ \\ m_i = 4 lb [/tex]
Now change in mass is given as;
Δm = [tex]m'_o*t_o[/tex]
Δm = 0.03 × 90
Δm = 2.7 lb
[tex]m_f[/tex] = [tex]m_i[/tex] - Δm
[tex]m_f[/tex] = 4 - 2.7
[tex]m_f[/tex] = 1.3 lb
now,
[tex]v_f = V/m_f\\ \\ v_f = 8/1.3\\ \\ v_f = 6.154 f^3/lb [/tex]
From the gas equation
Pv = RT
Final state:
[tex]T_f = P_fv_f/R\\\\ T_f = (30*12^2*6.154)/53.33\\\\ T_f = 498.5^oR [/tex]
Converting to °F:
[tex]T_f[/tex] = 38.83°F is the final temperature.

What is the mass of a block concrete that gains 52,800 joules of energy when its temperature is increased by 5 degrees Celsius specific heat of concrete 880 J/K degrees Celsius
Answer:
12 kg
Explanation:
q = 52,800 J
c = 880 J/(kg * K) Pretty sure you missed the kg here
ΔT = 5 °C = 5 K (reminder that this only applies to ΔT and not T)
q = mcΔT ⇒ m = q/(cΔT) = 52,800 J / (880 J/(kg * K) * 5 K) = 12 kg
The mass of a block concrete that gains 52,800 joules of energy when its temperature is increased by 5 degrees Celsius specific heat of concrete 880 J/K degrees Celsius is 12kg
The formula for calculating the quantity of heat energy absorbed by the block is expressed as:
Q = mcΔt
Q is the quantity of heat = 52,800 Joules
m is the mass of the concrete
c is the specific heat of concrete = 880 J/K
Δt is the change in temperature = 5 degrees
substitute the given values into the formula:
[tex]52800=m(880)(5)\\52800 = 4400m\\m=\frac{52800}{4400}\\m= 12kg[/tex]

Three people pull simultaneously on a stubborn donkey. Jack pulls eastward with a force of 80.5 N, Jill pulls with 81.7 N in the northeast direction, and Jane pulls to the southeast with 131 N. (Since the donkey is involved with such uncoordinated people, who can blame it for being stubborn
Answer:
F = 233.52 N, θ' = 351.41º
Explanation:
In this exercise we must find the net force applied on the donkey.
For this we use Newton's second law, where we create a reference frame with the horizontal x axis
let's decompose the forces
Jack

Jill
cos 45 = F_{2x} / F₂2
sin 45 = F_{2y} / F₂2
F_{2x} = F₂ cos 45
F_{2y} = F₂ sin 45
F_{2x} = 81.7 cos 45 = 57.77 N
F_{2y} = 81.7 sin 45 = 57.77 N
Jane
cos (270 + 45) = F_{3x} / F₃3
sin 315 = F_{3y} / F₃
F_{3x} = 131 cos 315 = 92.63 N
F_{3y} = 131 sin 315 = -92.63 N
the force can be found in each axis
X axis
F_{x} = F_{1x} + F_{2x} + F_{3x}
F_{x} = 80.5 +57.77 + 92.63
F_{x} = 230.9 N
Axis y
F_{y} = F_{1y} + F_{2y} + F_{3y}
F_{y} = 0 + 57.77 -92.63
F_{y} = -34.86 N
we can give the result in two ways
a) F = (230.9 i ^ - 34.86 j ^) N
b) in the form of module and angle
we use the Pythagorean theorem
F = √(Fₓ² + F_{y}²
F = √(230.9² + 34.86²)
F = 233.52 N
let's use trigonometry for the angle
tan θ = [tex]\frac{F_y}{F_x} }[/tex]
θ = tan⁻¹ (\frac{F_y}{F_x} })
θ = tan⁻¹ (-34.86 / 230.9)
θ = -8.59º
if we measure this angle from the positive side of the x-axis counterclockwise
θ' = 360 -θ
θ‘= 360- 8.59
θ' = 351.41º

6. The petrol in a petrol can weighs 2000g. The density of petrol is 0.8g/cm3.
What is the volume of the petrol in the can in a) cm3 b)litres (1000cm3=1 litre)
Pls help :((
Answer:
a. 2500 cm³.
b. 2.5 litres.
Explanation:
Given the following data:
Density = 0.8g/cm³
Mass = 2000g
To find the volume of the petrol;
Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.
Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.
Mathematically, density is given by the equation;
[tex]Density = \frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]
Making volume the subject of formula, we have;
[tex]Volume = \frac{mass}{density}[/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have:
[tex]Volume = \frac{2000}{0.8}[/tex]
Volume = 2500 cm³
a. The volume of the petrol in the can in cubic centimeters (cm³) is 2000.
b. The volume of the petrol in the can in litres;
1000 cm³ = 1 litre
2500 cm³ = x litres
Cross-multiplying, we have;
1000x = 2500
x = 2500/1000
x = 2.5 litres.
Therefore, the volume of the petrol in the can in litres is 2.5.
